Check out Home Depot and Fleet Farm for reasonably priced tools, boxes, etc.

The best bang for the buck I have seen is the sam's club box. Total stainless contruction with ball bearing slides for around $650. Mo got one at Elite and my brother-in-law got one a couple years back. Really nice boxes.

I spent $200 for a demo model craftsman from sears in May. Nothing amazing, with all the drawers full, they open and close just fine. I may pay the big bucks for a bb-drawered model some day, but for now this one is just dandy!

I shopped around quite a bit, and I say if you're on a budget, a Craftsman box is a good buy.

If you make your living out of your toolbox, you will not be able to live without ball-bearing drawers.

Juat an FYI that Craftman boxes are made in Waterloo, IA by Waterloo Industries so you can probably find a Waterloo box cheaper than a Craftsman since you won't be paying for the Craftman name.

Check with Sears parts and service shops. They usually have reconditioned or overstocked boxs at a pretty good discount. Or watch for sales at Sears, you can use mutiple coupons together. This spring I got a $1180 box for just over $600 out the door.

I second this. Always check the pawn shops as i do. You wouldn't believe how much good shit i've wheeled out of pawn shops. In this day and age you wouldn't believe what people will pawn off for a little cash.

Pawn shops are a good place to start for tools.
